Using Geany 1.36
I have these checked in preferences:
Auto completion of multiline comments
Auto complete symbols
Auto complete all words in the document
Chars to type = 3

When I type appl
This is the list I see.
application_uri
applies_to
apply
apply_async
apply_colors
apply_filter
The only item in the list that appears in my script is apply_colors.
I am curious how autocomplete comes up with the words it shows in the
list.
Not enough detail to be sure, but possibly global tags loaded for the
unnamed language you are programming in.
My bad, I am programing in Python3. I looked through the preferences for
global tags but didn't see it. Where can I check it?
The global Python tags are loaded automatically from this compiled
binary file:
https://github.com/geany/geany/blob/ea649d8024b14ce55a922e146078ad1bc15533df/data/tags/std.py.tags
The file is generated by this script:
https://github.com/geany/geany/blob/ea649d8024b14ce55a922e146078ad1bc15533df/scripts/create_py_tags.py
which - without reading it to verify - I believe just includes All The
Things.
For more info about tags, see the manual:
https://www.geany.org/manual/current/index.html#symbols-and-tags-files
Note that Geany doesn't really do any kind of introspection or
heuristics on the code or suggestions like some other editors try to do,
so the autocomplete list may not be very useful.
